Despite a hot inflation report for January, U.S. stocks shrugged off the news and ended the day in the green.

According to the report from the Commerce Department, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose 0.3%, which was higher than the 0.2% increase that economists had forecast.

The core CPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, rose 0.1%, which was in line with expectations.

Despite the higher-than-expected CPI numbers, the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 both ended the day higher, while the Nasdaq Composite closed slightly lower.

The market’s reaction to the inflation report was likely due to the fact that the numbers were in line with expectations and that the underlying fundamentals of the economy remain strong.

The inflation rate is still below the Federal Reserve’s 2% target, and the labor market is continuing to add jobs.

In addition, the January jobs report showed that average hourly earnings rose by 0.2%, which is lower than the 0.3% increase that was expected.

The market’s reaction to the inflation report also reflects the fact that investors are looking beyond the near-term inflationary pressures and focusing on the longer-term outlook for the economy.

Overall, it appears that the market has taken the news in stride and is looking ahead to the future.
